At launch the console download was about 54 GB on PS5 and roughly 59 GB on Xbox Series X|S, while Saber lists 75 GB of SSD space for the PC version. An SSD is a hard requirement on PC. Post-launch seasonal updates have added content and pushed real-world install sizes higher over time, so treat these as baseline figures. Saber also released a free, optional 4K High-Resolution Texture Pack that is roughly 85-90 GB on its own and more than doubles the PC install to around 160 GB; it also demands much stronger hardware (notably high VRAM) and its own minimum spec exceeds the base game's recommended spec. The base game looks and runs fine without it. Always verify the current figure on Steam, the Epic Games Store, or your console storefront before downloading, as totals move with each patch.

Space Marine 2 — frequently asked

Does Space Marine 2 have crossplay?
Yes for co-op. The story campaign and PvE Operations support crossplay across PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam and Epic), so you can squad up with friends on other systems. It is on by default and can be turned off in settings.
Does Space Marine 2 have cross-save or cross-progression?
Yes, but as a manual transfer, not an automatic sync. You link a Focus/Prism Ray online account and move your save between platforms yourself, with a lengthy cooldown between transfers. Paid DLC does not transfer across platforms.
How big is Space Marine 2 to install?
About 54 GB on PS5, roughly 59 GB on Xbox Series X|S, and 75 GB of SSD space on PC at baseline. Updates have raised sizes over time, so check your storefront for the current figure.
What is the 4K Texture Pack and how much space does it need?
It is a free, optional high-resolution texture add-on for PC. It is roughly 85-90 GB on its own and pushes the total install to about 160 GB, and it needs much stronger hardware (high VRAM). The base game runs fine without it.
Can my PC run Space Marine 2?
For 1080p/30 on Low, the minimum is a GTX 1060 6 GB (or RX 580) with a Core i5-8600K and 8 GB RAM. For 1080p/60 on Ultra, aim for an RTX 3070 (or RX 6800 XT) with a Core i7-12700 and 16 GB RAM. An SSD is required.
How long is Space Marine 2?
The campaign is about 7-8 hours on a direct run, 10-11 hours playing thoroughly, and 15-20 hours for full story completion. The co-op Operations and PvP modes are effectively endless, and full progression plus the platinum runs 50+ hours.
Is Space Marine 2 co-op? How many players?
Yes. The story campaign supports up to 3-player online co-op, and the separate PvE Operations mode is built for 3-player co-op. Both support crossplay. There is no local split-screen.
How many trophies does Space Marine 2 have?
There are 50 trophies: 1 platinum, 2 gold, 10 silver, and 37 bronze, all from the base game. Free content updates have not added new trophies, and there is no paid DLC trophy list.
Is the Space Marine 2 platinum hard, and does it need online?
It is moderate, rated around 6/10 and about 50+ hours, mostly due to grind (such as tens of thousands of total kills). Yes, it needs online: PS Plus is required, the Eternal War PvP mode cannot be played solo, and one trophy requires clearing an Operation on the top 'Ruthless' difficulty.
